A radicalized Muslim arrested for plotting to assassinate U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May learned his fate today.
Per Sky News:
Naa’imur Zakariyah Rahman, 21, from Finchley in north London, was found guilty last month of preparing acts of terrorism in Britain, having been arrested in November 2017 moments after collecting dummy explosives from an undercover officer.
Rahman wanted to bomb the gates of 10 Downing Street, kill armed officers and then attack the prime minister with a knife or gun.
His plot was discovered after he contacted an FBI agent who was posing as an IS official online.
The agent introduced him to an MI5 role-player, and Rahman began to reveal his ideas.
During the trial, jurors learned how Rahman first came to the attention of law enforcement when police arrested him on suspicion of sending sexual images to underage girls last year.
Around the same time, the idea of terrorism seduced Rahman – who’s uncle radicalized him before being killed in a drone strike.
In his concluding remarks, the judge admonished Raham, lambasting the defendant as “a very dangerous individual and it is difficult to predict when, if ever, he will become de-radicalized and no longer be a danger to society.”
